Obleek

We made this gooey stuff in class today. It is very sticky at first, but then if you put it in a plastic bag and let it dry a little bit it will not get sticky anymore. It will almost be like silly putty. My mom will type the recipe down below if you want to make it. CAUTION. If you stick your hand in the whole thing when you are in the middle of it, then your hands will get stuck and you can barely get your hand out!

GOOP

INGREDIENTS:

1 rounded teaspoon 20 Mule Team Borax
8 oz white school glue
1 1/4 cup water
15 drops of food coloring (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a glass bowl, stir together 1 cup of water, the white glue and the coloring.
2. Dissolve all the borax powder in the remaining 1/4 cup water.
3. Add borax mixture to glue mix and stir until a slimy lump forms. Stir vigorously for another 30 seconds.
4. Remove the lump of slime and knead it with your hands to dry it and complete the reaction.

ENJOY!

Oink, Oink!

Bleu is spending the night at his friend's house. This is a picture of their pig. The pig came to school yesterday and caused quite a sensation!

The last day!

This is the last day of the CRT. I am so glad that it is ending today. [It ended yesterday, but I'm acting like I wrote this yesterday.] I finished every single thing in my CRT booklet. Everyone else has to do the rest that they did not finish. Lucky me because I get candy for nothing because we get candy when we are doing CRT.

P.S. Life is great with CANDY!

That's all, folks.

The last week.

Today is the last week for the big test. Next week will be catching up of what you didn't do on your CRT. I am so glad that the CRT is ending this week. I hope I will never have to take it again, but I do until college. I don't like the CRT because there is so much things that I do not know. Over the summer, I will be studying and studying so my teacher will get a good grade because she is getting graded on the CRT. So, all of us have to do a good job. That's it.

THe CRT!

It's been a week since the CRT started. If you don't know what that is, I'll tell you in the letter I'm about to write. The CRT lasts for two weeks, but the third week is make up day. Not makeup, makeup. Just doing what you missed in your booklet. The CRT is the worstest test in the whole entire world. I cannot stand taking one more section of writing, science, reading or ANYTHING. And that's a permanent statement! And that's all for today.

Thank you. Thank you very much, folks.
